A Fvn Ride – Bio
A Fvn Ride is: Marc-Andre ('Bedz') Bedard – lead guitar, Ivan ('Fearless Leader') Freud – rhythm guitar and vocals, Yanick ('Yvil') Renault - bass, and Guillaume ('Big G') Vaillancourt. – drums.
Ivan started writing songs while living in Japan nearly fifteen years ago. His first band was 'Wood' a folk-rock outfit that played such renowned houses of ill repute as 'Jailhouse Rock,' 'Barfly,' 'Club One', and 'Green Room.' After the break-up of Wood, Ivan went on to do his Master's in the History and Philosophy of Religion but kept writing tunes. Having finished his degree, he landed a job as a Spiritual Care and Guidance and Community Involvement Animator and was assigned to a number of local schools, one of which being the one where he met Yanick and Marc-Andre.
It was at this high school that Yanick, who had played bass with a plethora of Halifax punk bands, was working as a child-care worker for students with special needs, and Marc-Andre, a self-taught guitar virtuoso hailing from South-Central St. Michel, was teaching history.
Guillaume had been the drummer for the great Quebec rock band, 'Franco-American;' and it was on the set of Franco's first video - 'Tom, Fait de la Magie!' that Ivan and Guillaume first met. Following Franco's demise, Guillaume was enlisted and A Fvn Ride was born!
AFR has since rocked 'Barfly', 'Inspecteur Epingle', and 'Crobar' and looks forward to rockin' you soon!
